Who'd have guessed that the people at Disney were such big fans of Arrested Development!?!

Why do we say that, you ask?

Well, there were two MAJOR references to the series in the hit movie, which, apparently, were overlooked by a lot of people!

But, Robert Lopez, the Frozen composer (& EGOT winner!!!), admitted that one of the references was an "unconscious callback" to Jason Bateman's character on the show.

He said:

“I think [my wife Kristen Anderson-Lopez and I] had seen [that] episode once, and we did the joke, and realized that we had kind of made an homage. And then we tried to rewrite it, but we kept it because we couldn’t come up with anything better. Because Arrested Development is amazing.”

AH-MAZING!! We're sure the AD fans who saw the film were pleasantly surprised! Plus there's a very obvious reference to Portia de Rossi's character too!

We can literally hear it in her head as she walked onto the Oscars stage last night to accept her award for "Best Original Song!"

"Two down, two to go…"

And hot damn, does Adele deserve the distinction of having an EGOT, or what?!

The supremely talented singer has apparently now landed enough accolades for her contributions to the entertainment industry that she has her sights set on the much-sought-after quartet of statues, as she was overheard telling journalists in the Oscar press room that in order to secure the remaining Emmy and Tony Awards:

After announcing she'll be doing a three-week run of the stage version of Sister Act on the West End in London from August 10 to August 31, more than £1million worth of tickets were sold in two days, with sources saying that the rest of the run should sell out shortly.

The EGOT star will be playing a different role this time around as Mother Superior.

But now, the younger sister of Louis, Félicité Deakin (pictured above, left, with Louis), has figured out her own way to pay tribute to her mother in a very special manner, and we are SO touched by it.

On Friday, the 16-year-old Deakin shared the following image (below), a gorgeous portrait of the family with her late mother, Johannah Deakin, surrounded by all of her children:
